I was lucky. I always had really great friends in my personal life, people always just knew who I was. It wasn't until I was in show business where that sort of changed or shifted at first. I have always had a great support network. I have had a lot of really wonderful, close friends.
Margaret ChoI've worked with incredible producers who have also taken my voice and brought it to another level. I think I have some natural abilities, but it's the technique that I've been learning from the best that keeps me going. I'm really honored to do it.

Margaret ChoThere's this idea like feminism is humorless and humorless in a way that's like a whistleblower. Like you're going to - you're going to make sure that nobody has any fun.

Margaret ChoI'm really bad with trolls because I have a lot of really intense friends who are not necessarily doing things so legally.

I see this person in his totality, and I feel so bad. I shouldn't have that power.
